Summary/Abstract: Ştefan Ştefu is an important figure of his generation, trained on the benches of the Arad schools, who at the beginning of the 20th century fought for the emancipation of the Romanians. He worked as a schoolmaster in different localities, knowing well the problems of Romanian society. He also stood out in the musical field, being a supporter of Romanian choral music, an important element that strengthened national sentiment when the Hungarian political class was implementing harsh Hungarianization measures. Like other contemporaries, Ştefan Ştefu was mobilized in 1914, arriving at the front in Poland, from where he never returned.
